Then let me show you what despair is.” The male waiter said while a dagger already appeared in his hand, coated with poison, and anyone cut by it would undoubtedly die.
Slowly he approached Mu Chen, aiming for a lethal blow.
Mu Chen said disdainfully, as he stood up, facing the two assailants coming at him.
“Die!” The two men shouted as they lunged at Mu Chen with their daggers.
“Fancy moves, too slow, and you’ve made a grave mistake, assassins.
Once you reveal yourselves, without real strength, you’re just trash in the eyes of others.” Mu Chen spoke again while his hands moved swiftly, grabbing the arms of the two attackers, showing a look of contempt.
Dongfang Aoxue was shocked; the two assassins were no ordinary ones, but they were effortlessly blocked by Mu Chen, completely no match for him, which made her even more curious about Mu Chen’s true identity.
At this moment, Song Weida’s face darkened.
He had thought the assassins he arranged would easily kill Mu Chen, but he did not expect this outcome.
“How is this possible, your strength, your aura, how can it be so powerful, who are you?”
“I’m afraid if I tell you my name, you two might die of fright right here.”
“What do you want exactly?” While their arms were being held, feeling like Mu Chen could crush them anytime, the two men’s faces turned pale.
“I can assure you, if I make a move, both of you will end up with your limbs disabled, even crippled.
So, from now on, I expect you to cooperate with me fully, got it?”
“Understood,” the two men, sweating, replied.
“First thing, I want to know, who sent you here to kill Dongfang Aoxue or kidnap her?”
We were contacted by phone, and were given one million beforehand, with another five million to follow upon completion.”
“So you just agreed?”
“We agreed, and we thought there was no danger or difficulty, so we accepted.
But if you’re involved, we wouldn’t do it even for one hundred million.”
But if you want me to spare you, you have to do something for me, and it won’t be difficult.”
“Disable Song Weida for me.
I want all his limbs, I want him to spend the rest of his life bedridden.
You see, I don’t go easy on despicable scum like him.
Of course, you can choose not to do it, but the consequences will be very, very dire for you, I might even kill you.”
“We’ll do it, crippling someone is easy for us assassins, we’re not afraid of trouble as long as you don’t hand us over to the police.”
“Don’t worry about that, I keep my word.” Having said that, Mu Chen immediately released their arms.
At that moment, the two turned their sinister gazes towards Song Weida, not just murderous intent but evil intent erupting.
“What do you think you’re doing, what are you doing, I’m from the Song Family, a major clan in Tianhai City, if you dare touch me, our family won’t let you off!” Song Weida, regaining his senses, said with a terrified face.
“Sorry, but we’re not afraid of any power, we’re just getting paid to do a job!
Plus, we just won’t show up in Tianhai City again, what can you do to us?”
“I’ll give you money, tens of millions, just don’t kill me, please.”
“There is no room for bargaining, compared to being crippled by him, no amount of money would be useful, so you’re the one who has to be sacrificed.”
But begging was futile.
The two struck savagely, ruthlessly kicking Song Weida away, breaking all his limbs with their feet, no, five limbs.
Song Weida screamed miserably and passed out.
The entire restaurant saw people fleeing, some screaming in fear, and some even calling the police.
“Let’s go,” Mu Chen said, turning to Dongfang Aoxue.
“Aren’t you afraid of the Song Family’s revenge?” Dongfang Aoxue asked with a serious look.
“Hmph, the Song Family?
They’re nothing; they just hire some assassins, but I have nothing to be afraid or concerned about.”
“Who exactly are you?” Dongfang Aoxue curiously asked.
“If you become my woman, I’ll tell you.”
“Delusional, forget it.”
“You should realize I’ve been sent from heaven to save a great beauty like you.”
“If you don’t want me to drive off on my own, you better behave and stop saying these disgusting things.” Dongfang Aoxue said and immediately left.
“Beauty, make your point clear, is this how you want it to be, is this…” Mu Chen followed her as he spoke.
The two left, leaving the bystanders dumbfounded, especially the restaurant, after ordering so much, only to see someone seriously injured and unconscious – it was unclear whether they could still charge for the meal.
Next, police and ambulances arrived, and members of the Song Family came, spewing all kinds of vile words.
It seemed Mu Chen and Dongfang Aoxue had truly offended the Song Family, but everyone was powerless, including the police, as the attackers were two unknown figures.
On the way back to Qingcheng International, Mu Chen stared at Dongfang Aoxue earnestly, the more he saw this thirty-something ‘big sister’, the more he was attracted by her cold and beautiful demeanor.
“If you keep staring, I will dig out your eyeballs,” Dongfang Aoxue said coldly.
“Being beautiful is meant to be admired; otherwise, what’s the point?”
“Hmph…” Dongfang Aoxue was speechless, utterly helpless.
Just like that, they returned to Qingcheng International unaware, after which, Dongfang Aoxue couldn’t be bothered with Mu Chen and went straight to see Liu Yuxi for a talk.
As for Mu Chen, he went to play games – for him, gaming and flirting were the real business of life.
Of course, Mu Chen in the sales department wouldn’t miss the chance to tease Yao Yue.
Mu Chen believed it wouldn’t be long before Yao Yue would fall for him, and maybe they would even tear each other apart in the office, leading him to the pinnacle of life.
Time passed quickly, and soon it was the end of the workday.
Beneath the bustling cityscape, dusk spread across the sky, and the nightlife began.
Mu Chen went to Liu Yuxi’s office consciously, ready to take her home.
“What did you do to Dongfang Aoxue today?” Liu Yuxi asked seriously after seeing Mu Chen.
I don’t understand what you mean.”
“Dongfang Aoxue is acting strange today; she’s actually asking about you, which is unheard of for her to take interest in any man.”
